Geet and Maan walked down the lonely streets of London in silence. On the way, they took Meera to a hospital just to make sure everything was alright.
It turns out she was poisoned and drugged so she had to stay in hospital.
Geet never knew that within one week, her whole life could be changed. She never knew that she could put Meera in danger. This was all her fault.
Geet silently started to cry.
Maan looked at Geet in silence and then led her to a bench. They both sat down. Normally Maan would have told her to stop crying, but this time he didn't. She deserved to let all her pain and sorrows out she had kept inside for so long.
Maan wanted to be strong.
But for the first time in his life, his eyes gave in and a tear fell down his cheek. This was all his fault.
"I'm sorry" they both said at the same time
Both half - cried and half - chuckled.
Geet: "This is all my fault I --"
Maan: "No Geet it's my fault. I turned you into an immortal. You didn't do anything" he said and then sighed.
A sudden silence engulfed them once again. The only object that broke it was a car going by.
Maan: "Can I call you Angel?" he asked suddenly
Geet turned to Maan, speechless at his choice of names. Geet has never had anyone call her Angel before.
Maan: "Because your beautiful. Just like an Angel" he said and kissed her lightly on the cheek.
Geet: "Okay" she said and looked down at her lap timidly.
Maan: "Wanna go to the beach?" he said
Geet: "Maan, where do these ideas come from? It's probably about midnight now" she said and shook her head in disbelief
Maan shrugged and took her hand. He knew the beach wasn't far away and he seriously couldn't be bothered using his powers. Using his powers might just make the trip a bit unreal and he wanted the beach to be real for Geet.
They finally reached the beach. Maan and Geet entered the beach and then looked at the dark blue sea hitting the rocks.
Geet: "I've never had time to go to the beach" she said looking at the sandcastles other children has made and abandoned.
Maan: "Well then. Lets explore" he said and rolled up his jeans. Geet rolled up her jeans and then removed cardigan so now she was only wearing a vest and jeans. She took off her shoes and then let the warm sand go through her toes.
The air was strangely warm, with only a light breeze going through her hair. It wasn't like this when they left the church. Maybe this day was just meant for Maan and Geet.
Geet went over to the sandiest area of the beach and started making sandcastles with an abandoned shovel left at the beach. Maan lay down and propped his head on his hand and watched her.
Geet then stood up and then started collecting seashells. Once she had lots, she went back to the sandcastle and right in front, she started planting seashells. When she was done, she stood up and clapped her hands in delight.
Geet: "Come and see this Maan" she called out
Maan stood up and then walked over to Geet's creation. Once he saw what Geet had done, his breath was stuck in his throat.
She made a huge sandcastle, and in front of it, the seashells were made to letters. It said:
"Maan and Angel's Sandcastle"
Maan had never really experienced anything so touching in his life. He felt a huge knot in his throat as he looked at the sandcastle.
Maan: "Angel" he croacked out and grabbed her by her belt loop and pulled her towards him. He cupped her face and then kissed her ferociously on the lips.
Maan: "I love you"
Geet felt her eyes water.
Geet: "I love you too"
But little did they both know, that they still had a lot of troubles coming their way.
